[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 10/18] qed: Fix reading wrong value in loop condition

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2018-11-29 06:04:14
Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: networking drivers, qlogic ql4xxx ethernet driver, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Denis Bolotin <redacted>

[ Upstream commit ed4eac20dcffdad47709422e0cb925981b056668 ]

The value of "sb_index" is written by the hardware. Reading its value and
writing it to "index" must finish before checking the loop condition.
